That Muslim/Christian Parallel

Daily Mirror

The bombings of Thursday are no more an expression of Islam than the IRA's bombs were an expression of Catholicism.

Bishop of Lichfield

... just as the IRA has nothing to do with Christianity; so this kind of terror has nothing to do with any of the world faiths ...

The label of Catholic terror was never used about the IRA (obviously written by someone who's never been to Belfast)

Islamic Terrorism : An Oxymoron

Ever noticed how the IRA has never been labelled Christian terrorists, or Christian extremists, or Christian militants, or other such labels?

It does seem unfair when you look at it that way. Just compare these two statements.

After the London bombings :

In the name of God, the merciful, the compassionate, may peace be upon the cheerful one and undaunted fighter, Prophet Muhammad, God's peace be upon him.

Nation of Islam and Arab nation: Rejoice for it is time to take revenge against the British Zionist Crusader government in retaliation for the massacres Britain is committing in Iraq and Afghanistan. The heroic mujahideen have carried out a blessed raid in London. Britain is now burning with fear, terror and panic in its northern, southern, eastern, and western quarters.

We have repeatedly warned the British Government and people. We have fulfilled our promise and carried out our blessed military raid in Britain after our mujahideen exerted strenuous efforts over a long period of time to ensure the success of the raid.

We continue to warn the governments of Denmark and Italy and all the Crusader governments that they will be punished in the same way if they do not withdraw their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan. He who warns is excused.

God says: "You who believe: If ye will aid (the cause of) Allah, He will aid you, and plant your feet firmly."

Statement from the Republican News Service, Dublin

In the name of God the Father, maker of all things, seen and unseen, of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ, by whose Blood we are redeemed, of the Holy Spirit, and of Our Lady the Blessed Virgin, Queen of Ireland and Star of the Sea. Amen.

Nation of Lord Jesus Christ and Holy Ireland: Rejoice for it is time to take revenge against the British Protestant Cromwellian Ironsides in retaliation for the massacres Britain is committing in Loughgall and Gibraltar. The heroic Warriors of Christ The King have carried out a blessed raid in London. Britain is now burning with fear, terror and panic in its northern, southern, eastern, and western quarters.

We have repeatedly warned the British Government and people. We have fulfilled our promise and carried out our blessed military raid in London after our glorious Jesuit warriors exerted strenuous efforts over a long period of time to ensure the success of the raid.

We continue to warn the governments of Germany, Holland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Switzerland, and all Orange and Calvinist apostates against Holy Church and His Holiness the Pope, peace and long life be upon him, that they will be punished in the same way if they do not withdraw their troops from occupied Catholic Bavaria, repent their apostasy, and return penitent to Holy Mother Church. He who warns is excused.

Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.

And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
